Tilt/Rotate Gelcoat Exchange Carts

Tilt and Rotate carts are specifically designed to transfer molds through the gelcoat application, and simplify the gelcoat spray process.

This unit speeds up the gel coat process by elevating and rotating molds a full 360° in one mode, and lifting them to a 30° angle in another mode. This mobility allows the spray gun operator to stand on one side of the cart throughout the entire spraying process. An integral mold support table elevates and rotates the mold and the cart conveyor track tilts it. This cart is compatible with Gruber Spray Booths and Gruber Conveyor Systems, and can accommodate most Gruber molds. In addition to being energy-efficient, the Tilt/Rotate Cart reduces operator fatigue and injuries. Use of the cart assist in more even gel coat coverage of the mold surface. Tilt and Rotate carts feature heavy-duty steel construction, galvanized steel wheelway with steel skate conveyor wheel, easy rolling V-groove wheels, pneumatic operation for hazardous areas, heavy-duty steel rotate plate, and durable powdercoating for easy cleanup and protection. Tilt & Rotate carts are available in three different configurations, and in 10 foot or 12 foot lengths.

Rotate: Lever-operated, pneumatic cylinder driven for 4” of lift off of the wheelway enabling 360° of rotation.
